1990 25' Convincer cover

Just bought the boat and need a cover. I found covers on boatcoversdirect but they dont list one for my boat. They list for the 253, 260, 270, 283. I know about how they changed the way they measured the boats but not sure what cover I should order and figured i'd ask on here before I try to call them and see what they say.

Mine is a 1990 25' convincer with the swim platform.
 
I won't be calling Checkmate for a cover, thats for sure. Im not spending $900 on a cover. I'll have my shelter built in a few months just need something to keep the water out and the sun off it for now.
 
SM if your boat is 25' w/ the platform then the cover for the 253 would work. I would go one size up (260) to be on the safe side. Do you have a cockpit cover for your boat?
 
The boat does have a cockpit cover in good shape too. Im thinking I should order it for the 270 being its supposed to be 25' + the swim platform. I have plenty of time to figure it out. I won't be getting the boat for another 2 weeks and then it goes straight in the shop for some work on the gel coat above the rub rail. I want it to be right when I take it out for the first time this spring. It's really a good time to have work done as everybodys really slow right now and are looking for work.
